Consultation advised: Would like to give you some specific advice but your description isn't sufficient enough to point to a specific diagnosis. You should see your physician or consider a video consultation on Health Tap which may be helpful.

It is time for a: visit with your doctor. The discoloration and puffiness mentioned raises some concern but even more so the associated pain. It is necessary to check for problems involving the deeper tissues of the eye and or the sinuses. Take care.
